When I found this site I thought I would build one or two guitars and move on to something else. But, I've seen some wildly creative instruments on this site that have provided me with a constant source of inspiration. Now I'm 30 instruments in and still going strong.
I think it would be fun to post pictures of the builds the we're the most proud of.
Don't feel limited to guitars. I've seen some homemade jigs, tools,drum kicks, and lots of other things that're both artistic and marvels of backyard engineering.
So lets each post one pick that's the best of what we've designed and built.

lol thanks, #2 is almost done ... maybe today if I can bang out my adult chores :)
nice
Wow!! That is ornate.
Can you post picks of some other angles?
do you play it, blow it, or use it to make the tea...? ;-)
...or use it to catch fish... ?
Funny Steve, yer killin' me ! Yes, all of the above. hahaha
The "arrowhead" is just one of several "attachments" that can screw on to the end of one of the three brass tubes that make up the neck. The center tube is from an old camera tripod, when extended I can cook hot dogs over a campfire while playing the guitar. ;-)
Oh, man! I love this! I just watched your video . . . I hadn't taken into account the need for things like roasting marshmallows with a git . . . I'll have to rethink my current design. I've never seen anything approaching your creativity. What fun you must have. Thanks for sharing this with us!
